Winemaker Notes
Bright and clean golden color, with rounded and intense varietal aroma of apple and pineapple and hints of mineral. It maintains its freshness despite the ageing process. A full-bodied wine with a long finish. Ageing on lees brings body, smoothness and balance in the mouth.
Ideal with white meat, fish, seafood and rice dishes.
Blend: 85% Hondarrabi Zuri, 15% Chardonnay
There are hundreds of white grape varieties grown throughout the world. Some are indigenous specialties capable of producing excellent single varietal wines. Each has its own distinct viticultural characteristics, as well as aroma and flavor profiles.
On the southern edge of the rocky Bay of Biscay in northern Spain, this is Basque country and home to the refreshing and slightly effervescent (usually) white wine, Txakoli. Three subregions compose the larger one: Getariako Txakolina, Bizkaiko Txakolina and Arabako Txakolina. While Hondarribi Zuri and Hondarrabi Beltza are the main grape varieties, other French varieties are scattered throughout the region.
